Bus trip time!Maxus and his friends! Maxus could feel the part of him that never grew up feeling slightly excited for what he was about to experience. Maxus had rarely experienced any form of travel nor luxury and now, he found himself awaiting in queue to board a 5 star luxury overnight bus, paid fully for by Siu."What do you mean charge my phone?" Maxus couldn't understand the features the bus offered."There's an in built charger on every seat." Dante explains."That's not possible.""Why not?"Gan sat beside Siu who were both in front of himself and Dante who was trying to hold back his laughter, watching Siu roll her eyes irritably as the gigantic Gan snored loudly in his sleep. "Aren't you pretty good at meditating?" Dante teased Siu while Maxus still inspected the bus seat's charging plug, still impressed in awe by the comfort and convenience the bus possessed."Meditating does not turn off my ears." Siu complained, grabbing her earpiece and turning up the volume of her musi
Hi, I am Max Lee, author is this book.I have recently decided to repolish the entirety of the Soultaker book. I am currently in the middle of redoing parts of the story as I feel like it does not represent the story I have in mind well. I therefore am going to redo the story with additional content and revised scenes and hopefully will republsh them either here or other platforms. Please keep a lookout for the same title Soultaker: Guardian of Singapore and I will be re releasing this book some time in the near future.Thank you for your support.
I took my first life when I was 15. One year later, that kill count rose into the dozens and by the time my teenage years were over...I could barely recall how many people fell victim to me. Most people around the world such as policemen and news reporters think it's around...five hundred. But I know the real number lies within the thousands.Maxus Tan stood at the edge of a tall skyscraper overlooking the Marina Bay Skyline, the gorgeous beautiful city of Singapore, his home, a sight that his eyes had feasted upon hundreds of times and yet, each time he gazed upon the city he would still feel a strong sense of belonging like every time was his first. He was known as many things. The Soultaker, The Sole Defender of Singapore, Vigilante of the Lion City, Southeast Asia's Deadliest Man... some people didn't even think he exists, that the Soultaker was a myth created by the locals to steer criminals away from Singapore. The infamous vigilante who is widely known to be the sole hero of
"Bring those girls in!" Maxus could hear several voices within the school compound of Teck Ghee Primary School. They were faint till the point where people in the neighborhood would never hear them unless they were in the school's vicinity and at 2am, who the hell would be? Maxus looked around him, ensuring that no one could see him before breaking into a sprint towards the gates of the school, latching onto them and hopping his way over the fence before landing on his toes, making as little noise as he could."Those bastards are late. Should we call them?" "No point, Mr VIP ain't even here yet." VIP... Every word he heard just made the situation seem more and more strange. Maxus knew he had to get a better angle of the men as he made his way silently towards the source of the voices, drawing out his twin blades as he heard footsteps across the hallway heading towards him. The vigilante closed his eyes, honing his senses to focus onto the approaching footsteps and confirming that o
Dozens of bodies found at Olympia Primary. Prostitution activities suspected to be taking place. Evidence point to a vigilante like person breaking into the hall and taking out the gang. Police warn that whoever was reponsible is extremely dangerous and that the public should remain vigilant until the culprit is found. "Names...Soultaker? What kind of name is that?" Maxus read. The teenager noticed one of the nearby newspaper outlets, their headline giving him all the information he needed for now. For many months now he has expected himself to be noticed, leaving a trail of dead bodies everywhere he went, it was only a matter of time before the police figured out that some vigilante like him was doing this. How many people have I killed...? "Maxus...right?" A gentle, flowery voice broke his chain of thought. Maxus turned around to see a familiar looking girl waving at him from a small distance away, a girl around his age with a slim build, shorter than him by half a head about
The school day ended. Who expected that after just his first day of school, Maxus became known as the most dangerous student. His plan to stay unnoticed backfired on him quickly as news of his fight with the kickboxing captain spread like wildfire and since that day, martial artists from all over the school wanted to spar with him to see if they could take on the newbie who knocked out a combat veteran in 10 seconds. Now on his third day of school, Maxus found himself being challenged yet again.Walking out of his first lecture, he and Reynesh were greeted by a group of Taekwando students, one of the taller ones in his full sparring uniform, leaning against a wall with his arms folded awaiting Maxus."Maxus Tan right? I'm Rake Loh, captain of the Taekwando team and here to issue you a sparring challenge. I wanna see your skills first hand."The senior looked at Maxus who found himself staring at yet another taller opponent." Sorry I'm not interested."Maxus answered quickly, walking pa
"Where's Maxus?" "I dunno. He didn't reply me. He isn't even online." Leah and Reynesh sat next to each other in their lecture theater along with Luke and Amy. Their psychology lecturer was taking their attendance, mouthing off the name of the students and eventually, getting to Maxus."Maxus Tan? Is he here?" "No Mrs Wong." Reynesh answered for his best friend. The lecturer sighed:" First week on school and already people are skipping class. You young people these days, take your studies more seriously please." Reynesh rolled his eyes, already tired of older teachers since his secondary school days complaining about his generation. Luke taps Reynesh on the arm:" You knew Maxus since secondary school right? ""Yeah." Reynesh answered. "Did he get into a fight or something? He often has like scars and stuff on him." Luke noticed. "Maxus? I don't think so? I know he has a background in martial arts and heard about it from him every now and then but...I've never actually seen him fi
"I believe I found the man responsible Dad. I'll kill him." Maxus could still feel every breath he took crushing his sides, his neck all the way to his shoulders, stiff with soreness as he placed a brand new flower on his father's ash urn. He felt a pair of eyes looking at him as the vigilante turned around, finding Tony Ang at the entrance of the temple. "You have time? I have something to talk to you about." Tony asks. "Yeah. I have time." Maxus found himself in front of a table with a large takeaway packet of Roti Prata, Tony taking a seat in front of him and clearly had something important go discuss. "I'm not stupid Maxus. I trained you and I know your skills. The fact that you still sustained this injuries only tell me one thing." Tony cut straight to the point."I have nothing to hide from you." Maxus muttered. "You realize what you are doing right?" "Yes. I have no regrets." "Who else knows?" Maxus stopped himself to think before answering. He had knew Tony for a long
